A system in a vehicle comprising one or more sensors configured to obtain cognitive-load data indicating a cognitive load of an occupant of the vehicle, a controller in communication with the one or more sensors, wherein the controller is configured to determine a cognitive load of the occupant utilizing at least the cognitive-load data in response to an initiation of a video conference session, and output on a vehicle display a first user interface in connection with the video conference session when the cognitive load exceeds a threshold and a second user interface in connection with the video conference session when the cognitive load is below a threshold, wherein the second user interface includes video of the video conference session and the first user interface excludes video of the video conference session.

A vehicular display device includes an image display device that is arranged in front of a driver in a vehicle and configured to display an image. The image displayed in an information display area of the image display device includes an information image displaying information according to a mode selected out of a plurality of modes, and a menu image in which a plurality of titles corresponding to the respective modes are arranged in a lateral direction of the image and for which switching is made between display and hidden-display. When an operating input to switch the modes is made while the menu image is hidden, the image display device displays the menu image, and performs animation display that changes a title displayed as active out of the titles from a title corresponding to a mode before change to a title corresponding to a mode after the change.

A method for operating a vehicle information system of a vehicle, wherein an activation signal is received if a preparatory action of a user for putting the vehicle into operation is detected. Graphics data of an activation animation with a first display and a second display is generated as a function of the activation signal and is displayed in a display area. After the activation signal is received, an appearance of the first display is output, wherein the first display includes a first graphics object. A disappearance of the first display and an appearance of the second display are output. Also disclosed is a vehicle information system of a vehicle having a signal-generating unit by which a preparatory action of a user for putting the vehicle into operation is detected, and an activation signal is generated as a function of the detected preparatory action.

Disclosed herein are a display apparatus for vehicles and a method of controlling the same. The display apparatus for vehicles includes a projection glass having a variable transmittance, a variable glass driving unit configured to adjust the transmittance of the projection glass, a projector configured to display an image on the projection glass, an image input unit configured to receive an image to be projected onto the projection glass, a mode selection unit configured to select an operation mode of the projection glass, and a control unit configured, according to the selection of the mode selection unit, to drive the variable glass driving unit to adjust the transmittance of the projection glass and to project the image, input from the image input unit, onto the projection glass through the projector.

A system in a vehicle comprising one or more sensors configured to obtain cognitive-load data indicating a cognitive load of an occupant of the vehicle, a controller in communication with the one or more sensors, wherein the controller is configured to determine a cognitive load of the occupant utilizing at least the cognitive-load data in response to an initiation of a video conference session, and output on a vehicle display a first user interface in connection with the video conference session when the cognitive load exceeds a threshold and a second user interface in connection with the video conference session when the cognitive load is below a threshold, wherein the second user interface includes video of the video conference session and the first user interface excludes video of the video conference session.

A method for operating a vehicle operating system, wherein a navigation system provides map information, and a monitoring system monitors driver assistance information, which are displayed on a display device, wherein the navigation system, the monitoring system, the display device, and an operating device are coupled to a control device for data transfer, to display the map information and/or driver assistance information on the display, wherein an operating action is carried out by the operating device in order to change a display scale and/or a display angle in relation to a road surface between a first perspective and a second perspective, wherein the display scale and/or angle are adjusted continuously and/or discretely in at least two steps located within the two perspectives on a virtual visualization path, and wherein the first perspective is substantially perpendicular to the road surface and the second perspective is substantially parallel to the road surface.

An electric vehicle (EV) can include a VIC in operable communication with the EV main computer and the EV infotainment system. The VIC can include a processor, a memory in operable communication with the processor, and a computer-readable medium in operable communication with the processor and having software, such as a hypervisor, stored thereon. The VIC can be configured to have internet connectivity.

A device includes a vehicle information acquisition part configured to acquire vehicle information containing a vehicle speed, a visibility information acquisition part configured to acquire visibility information on a road for travelling, a virtual vehicle video generation part configured to generate a virtual vehicle video of a virtual vehicle, which is to be moving ahead of a host vehicle in the same direction as the host vehicle, and a projection control part configured to control projection of the virtual vehicle video by a projection unit, such that a virtual image of the virtual vehicle video generated by the virtual vehicle video generation part is visually recognized in front of the host vehicle.

Provided is a vehicle including a vehicle communicator configured to receive image information of a home device and position information derived on the basis of a signal transmitted by the home device, a display configured to display an image on the basis of the image information, and a vehicle controller configured to identify a selection area of the home device on the image on the basis of the image information and the position information, wherein the display shows the identified selection area.

A display control system to generate a virtual environment in a vehicle includes an electronic control unit (ECU) configured to receive an input that corresponds to a selection of a video to be displayed on one or more display mediums provided in the vehicle. A relevance factor is determined between a current travel route of the vehicle and a travel route associated with the selected video. The relevance factor is determined in an event the vehicle is in motion along the current travel route. One or more video parameters of the selected video are adjusted based on the determined relevance factor. Display of at least the selected video on the one or more display mediums is controlled in the vehicle in motion in accordance with the adjusted one or more video parameters of the selected video.
